    Keep in mind that Yahoo deactivates accounts that haven’t been signed into at least once in the last 12 months. Once the account has been deactivated it’s unlikely you can recover it. You can always sign up for a new Yahoo account, but your old Yahoo ID may not be available for you to use.

  5. "Auto generated card visible only to you" blocks the message block of the email

    When I'm composing an email, an "auto generated card visible only to you" comes up and obscures the email that I'm writing. Please how can I turn this feature off? It's a real hassle.

  6. How can I log into my desktop email without having to verify through my phone every time?

    How can I log into my desktop email without having to verify through my phone every time?
    Can you go back to the password method instead of having me go get my phone to verify through the yahoo app that I'm who I am when trying to access email from my desktop computer? It's a real pain in the butt!

  7. How long emails stay in trash.

    I may have deleted an email that contained important information. I don't know, because I can't tell how long it is until my trash folder gets cleared. I would very much like to change this in settings. For example, I would set it to delete emails after they've been in there for a month, so if it takes me a few weeks to realise I've deleted an important email, I can still get it back.

    By default, both the Trash and Spam folders empty automatically to keep your account tidy. You cannot change the Trash and Spam settings.

    Trash deletion frequency – Trash is deleted after 7 days.
    Spam deletion frequency – Spam is deleted after 30 days.

  8. I received two emails saying that they are from Yahoo Team and says that I will not receive any emails if I will not upgrade my email.

    Is it true that Yahoo will be upgrading and if I didn't upgrade, I will no longer receive emails?

    Those emails are most probably scannings. Mark them as spam and make sure you are not clicking on any links.

    in order to unblock a user, click on Settings > More Settings > Security and privacy and next to the blocked email address tap the Trash icon.

  11. Log In

    Allow me to use (and save) my password to access e-Mail. Sending me a notification requiring me to respond "Yes" on a Yahoo app on my phone is not working nor is it convenient

  14. Yahoo is offiically the worst email system in the country. Get us back to your original mail or you will lose a lot of clients. NO choices

    Yahoo is officially the worst mail system in the country. No features and not even a tool bar! NO choices. NO information on it. Get us back to your original mail or you will lose a LOT of clients ! So will Frontier lose server business since they use your mail for their host.
